A brave and resourceful child, Natty begins the epic trip across 1930s America by herself. She's not alone for long, however, Natty rescues a wolf from some vicious gamblers and together they make friends and face dangers on the way. A great adventure with a wonderfully tough heroine.

"It really is a chance for us to open children's minds to the power of film not just as a vehicle for entertainment but also as a way in to understanding their own world and the worlds of people whose lives are very different."
